How do unfamiliar environments convey meaning to older people? Urban dimensions of placelessness and attachment
"Attachment to place" within the gerontological literature is associated with long time periods of exposure to a place and has significantly contributed to how we give meaning to the spaces inhabited and used by older people. We also define ‘‘place’’ in this study on a macro scale - a city or town, rather than in micro terms of accommodation or home.
